How hard is this claim to file?

This settlement is closed — the deadline was 2021-05-28 and the $14.75 million fund has already been disbursed. If you bought or held Horsehead Holding Corp. securities during the class period and missed the deadline, there is nothing left to file.

Watch out for

  • The fund is marked Disbursed — no new money is coming. Anyone asking you to pay a fee to recover from this settlement is running a scam.
  • Only securities with these specific CUSIPs qualified: common stock (#440694305), 3.8% convertible senior notes (#440694AB3), 10.50% senior secured notes (#440694AC1, #440694AE7, #440694AF4), and 9% senior unsecured notes (#440694AG2).
  • The official settlement website is horseheadlitigation.com — any other domain handling claims for this case is not legitimate.

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
